Porter to.........Villanova???

[Eielson]

I think our roster 1-4 was Sweet 16 caliber last year. If Hugley had been who we hoped, that would have been an excellent roster. I was actually REALLY encouraged by that roster...until the wheels came off.

This year was basically a two-man show.

Somewhat unrelated to Moser, but maybe not…

Armon Gates has several recent follows - at least I think they are recent - of Nebraska basketball social media accounts, including the team and Fred Hoiberg.

To quote the wise @StoopsBros, “follow the follows.”

Pretty sure those are old follows. He coached at Nebraska with Hoidberg before he was at Oregon.

That’s too bad.

According to Eddie Rado over at soonerscoop... he believes the Porter Moser to Villanova stuff is legit, and if he is there number 2 after Willard, that Moser could potentially be on his way out

I’ll believe it when I see it, but you never know… maybe his comments were sort of a farewell message to Joe C

Eddie has no sources and is simply a self-aggrandizing goof

Maybe. But I see the motivation for the comments being indicative of hin staying more than leaving. He's trying to justify his sub-par results and future subpar results. Why would he do that, if he really had a legitimate option to leave? If he really had something he likely wouldn't care to say anything

Roster for next season (assuming no one leaves):

Returnees:
Duke Miles (can apply for a medical redshirt)
Dayton Forsythe
Luke Northweather
Mohamed Wague (JUCO)
Jacolb Fredson-Cole
Kuol Atak
Jadon Jones
Jeff Nwankwo

Freshmen:
Kai Rogers
Alec Blair
Andreas Holst

Leaves room for roughly two roster spots…

Now I predict that Miles, Cole, and Northweather are gone for sure. Freeing up five potential portal spots.

Could also see Jones and/or Nwankwo leaving but would like to see them stay.

Coaching change means everyone but Dayton and Nwankwo are gone IMO

Lol so every offseason since he’s arrived?

I doubt wague goes elsewhere in that scenario. And I hope that Kai rogers stays. But idk if it really matters. Tons of guys are gonna leave every single year, it's the dumb system

Not gonna lie... Pretty oof feeling roster until portal happens.

Also from trilly's board some fanbases:

Xavier fans - could def talk themselves into Moser
Iowa fan - Moser is not overrated, if no McCollum then Moser.
Villanova - Would rather have a young coach than Porter. Porter is a backup backup plan.

My favorite comment - "no one would be **** talking PM if his team could make a f*** layup"

 

[WTSooner]

Moser leaving needs to happen SOON so we can go find our new HC and start the Portal process, before others get their picks before we're even in the game.

McCollum is a good example. He will probably be on the move once his team loses. Not sure if that is who OU would target, but I haven't seen his name mentioned at places that OU cannot compete with. But we can't offer him a job if we still have Moser. So hopefully it happens fast. I worry the timing of Maryland losing may hold it up, putting us behind the 8 ball.

They’re not wrong.

I actually had the thought that Iowa might be a Porter destination as well. Definitely more passionate about basketball. Likely could find the funds to put together a competitive NIL. Proximity to Chicago recruiting. And I’m telling you, his reputation in Chicago circles is REALLY GOOD. It’s how he landed Fears.

That is a great demonstration of their lack of basketball knowledge. Quite frankly, outside of Josh with football, it's just a couple random dudes shooting the **** at the bar.
